If evidence for god is in abundance, why is faith necessary?

Ok, so it seems like discussion is not something that's particularly intriguing to you - do you mind if I ask you why not? If I made it seem as if this is all obvious, I admit that to be my mistake, and I apologize, because it isn't, and if any believer makes it seem like it is, they're wrong, and I'm sorry that you have to deal with that. But I'd love to hear more about how you got to your perspective on this topic.


What kind of discussion is possible when you claim knowledge that you don't have?  There is no objective, verifiable evidence for your or any god.  Until you can prove otherwise, you're just asserting and I'm just asking for evidence.
